Summary for current students

All higher education courses with students remaining on Caerleon campus will move in summer 2016 for the start of the 2016-17 academic year. Full time Caerleon students currently in their second or third year will graduate at Caerleon.

Animation, Games, and Advertising will move in summer 2015 from Newport City Campus to start the 2015-16 academic year in Cardiff, to get them into the existing better facilities, and enhance their learning alongside similar courses, as soon as possible. Film and Performing Arts will move a year later to start the 2016-17 academic year in brand new specialist facilities in the completed ATRiuM 2B building in Cardiff.
